Brief Answer:
You can take Mifeprine under your doctor supervision.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Welcome to HCM,

I can understand your concerns,

If you do not want pregnancy,you can take mifeprine(Mifepristone and misoprostol)(under your gynecologist supervision)

Though it has side effects like irregular period,delayed period or missed period,It is good that you did not have any side effects.

I suggest that you should do safe sex practice and should avoid taking these pills repeatedly.

Hope this helps,

Feel free to ask further,

Thanks.

Brief Answer:
you may have bleeding for14days ,after that ultrasound advised.

Detailed Answer:
Usually after taking Mifeprine,woman bleeds for 14days and she experiences passing of products of conception(fetus in sac).

After 14days,you should go for ultrasound to confirm complete abortion.

If you have heavy bleeding,you should consult your doctor.

Brief Answer:
You should wait for 2weeks.

Detailed Answer:
hello,

sorry for late response,

You should wait for 2weeks.No need to take any medicine.

Usually heavy bleeding occurs only for 1-2days ,then minimal bleeding for 2weeks.

I suggest that you should not take tension and wait for 2weeks and get ultrasound to confirm complete abortion.

Hope this helps,

Thanks.
